How can I get out and face my day?
How can I continue my life this way?
My love seems to have left my heart.
My world seems to be falling apart.
Without you here I feel so lost.
Why must happiness come with a cost?

You came into my life, your spirit so free.
With just a smile my love came to be.
Now looking back I wonder at your choice.
Falling for a man afraid to share his voice.
Yet you took my hand and shared your love.
I always thought you were sent from above.

Now it seems they wanted you back.
I never dreamed my heart would crack
The pain unbearable but I cannot show.
That your leaving was such a terrible blow.
Now as I lay flowers at your grave.
I still remember all the love you gave.
